We investigate the steady and transient shear and extensional rheological properties of a
series of model hydrophobically modified ethoxylate-urethane (HEUR) polymers with varying degrees of hydrophobicity. A new nonlinear ...

We present theory and experiments for thin film particle-laden flow on an incline. At higher particle concentration and inclination angle, a new phenomenon is observed in which a large particle-rich ridge forms at the ...

In this paper we explore a model, most appropriate for dilute or semi-dilute worm-like micellar solutions, in an axisymmetric circular Taylor-Couette geometry. This study is a natural continuation of earlier work on ...

Two distinct oligomeric species of similar mass and chemical functionality
(Mw ≈ 2,000 g/mol), one a linear methyl methacrylate oligomer (radius of gyration Rg ≈ 1.1 nm) and the other a hybrid organic-inorganic polyhedral ...

Diblock copolymers confined to a two-dimensional surface may produce uniform features of macromolecular dimensions (10 â 100 nm). We present a mathematical model for nanoscale pattern
formation in such polymers which ...

The progressive break-up of an initially stable fluid column or thread into a
number of smaller droplets is an important dynamical process that impacts many
commercial operations from spraying and atomization of fertilizers ...
